The SPT is a 360° assessment of a team. Views are sought internally (from within the team itself) and externally (from individuals who interact with the team), the team leader’s views are highlighted also.

The profile reports back quantative and qualitative results that culminate in a thorough overview of the team successes and areas for improvement.
